The success of the MIR project is a good omen for a space project that would utilize MASSIVE amounts of silver in the future. However there is no effect on today's prices unless someone is hoarding silver for the project, which I only suspected. Experts are only claiming that Warren Buffett was hoarding.

Only Uncle Sam is fabulously wealthy, since he was the big holder of silver during the time you mention. Part of the current strength of the US dollar comes from Uncle Sam's hoard of silver. Indonesia wants to peg it's currency to the US dollar. Any major weakness in silver will consequently weaken the dollar over the long haul, and weaken a number of US dollar-denominated alliances, especially oil related.
